This blog features a family of four mostly normal people doing very boring everyday things. I love to get good deals & coupon finds & will be sharing them with you as I find. I love to read & will also share some good finds & not so good finds, including FREE books once in awhile. We love to eat & do it with gusto so will let you know of any good or terrible places we find around the country too.

How to tell if you are getting a sale or not

How do you know if something is a good price on sale or not? I use the bulk prices as my bottom dollar. If I can get something cheaper than their per can, per pound, per loaf price then I consider it a good deal and I buy it. This is my updated spreadsheet that I keep with me when going through the ads every week. If its cheaper than these I buy it, if not I keep what I need on the Costco list. I haven't added toilet paper or paper towels yet but those are generally cheaper at discount stores also.
